Creamy sweet nutty goodness! This is a five star recipe for taste! But the directions are a bit confusing. I did chill the pecan nut mixture and added it to the ice cream just before it was done churning. Not sure what to do with it?? I didn`t want to add it hot to the cream so chilled it first. Wasn`t sure if it was a topping or to be mixed in???? Thanks
